Why Garage Doors Fail During Floods
1. Water Intrusion
– Standard seals fail at 6 inches of water – El Niño projections show 12-18” surges
– Damages openers, insulation, and structural integrity
2. Debris Impact
– Flash floods carry rocks/tumbleweeds that dent doors (47% of 2024 claims)
3. Mold Growth
– Post-flood humidity breeds mold in 72 hours (Southern Nevada Health District)
